Procedural Sokoban Generator

This program is a partial implementation of Joshua Taylor and Ian Parberry's paper "Procedural Generation of Sokoban Levels": Proceedings of the 6th International North American Conference on Intelligent Games and Simulation (GAMEON-NA), pp. 5-12, EUROSIS, 2011. They describe a cool algorithm to procedurally generate Sokoban levels.

This implementation was done in three weeks for my Modern Computer Games course final project. As such, it is not a complete implementation, is much slower than what Taylor & Parberry propose, and lacks many of the niceties. Probably, it should be called a loose proof of concept and not an implementation.

The program uses several graphical assets from elarel, my logic puzzle game based on Sokoban and other related games. These images are copyrighted and should not be reused for other projects.

The code is available at GitHub here.

I will proclaim to the world the deeds of Gilgamesh. This was the man to whom all things were known; this was the king who knew the countries of the world.
